That is the first thing that I noticed. That looks tacky and unrefined. Perhaps it is just because it is a thrown together model. I am sure that Apple will do better.
Got a tip for us?

The next person who calls it "un-apple like" will go straight to Guantanamo.
The current iPhone 3GS is un-apple like (plastic + chrome).
Aluminum and glossy black IS Apple-like. If you think it's un-Apple like, you apparently haven't seen any of their products released after 2006.

It's indented because the top cover isn't all the way on.
This has been stated over and over again.
It's partially assembled...read the article!!
this is because it is only partially assembled, did you read the op? also you can see by the pic that the back of the iphone is missing because the aluminium edge is completely flush to the table/surface
I want to mod the white with the old Apple logo!
That would be awesome
I think yes. They should use this for their advertisements.
Disappointed in the white, usually I like white things, but the white and silver here looks cheap and a bit tacky sadly. The black looks class though.
They're all un-Apple like... They're not beige, they don't have 45 degree chamfers. APPLE YOU FAILED!
And god dammit, if they don't get rid of the seams and the screws and the metal sides I'm going to go hang myself from a tree. Life just isn't worth living if Apple can't do exactly what I want them to.
Why, Apple... WHYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY!!!!!

omg i just realized something, thees look like 1st gen prototypes, with the white front and it looking like a block, i always thought that these 'leaked' phones were red hearings, but not i look at it these could be 1st gen iphone protypes, and the ones coming out are gonnabe something completely different
It's a pretty boring and uninteresting design in general, but that white one looks like ass.
I don't know what they were thinking. Sometimes Apple designs look much better in person, but it's hard to think this will be one of those times.

I guarantee that is absolutely not what the new iPhone HD is going to look like come WWDC. LOL
Plot, baby, plot!
Plot, baby, plot!
That is NOT a chrome trip piece, it's just the reflective edge shown because the screen is not put together especially on the white one! Read first people! It would stop plenty of stupid comments!
Nah I'm willing to bet that there will be some sort of suprise or something that we missed or didn't know about the new device.
Also how can something that Apple designs and releases look "un-apple?" It is Apple!! They determine what looks like Apple!!
mmm hate to say this, but I was realy hoping for something better for the white one. Dont get me wrong I LOVE my White 24" iMac, and I LOVED my 13" White MacBook.
But the phone just looks a bit tacky with white...the black screen doesnt help. IF they are going to go white, I would have liked to see a 'unibody' style white body, all rounded and in one single piece.
